Chapter 99: The Five-Element Mirror Falls into His Hands

  More than half a month has passed, and Kong Fang has been cultivating in the small courtyard without leaving. He was still worried about the injury caused by Qing Fan's transmission of the Soul Refining Method more than half a month ago, and he was worried that Qing Fan would ask him about it. However, since that day, Qing Fan's whereabouts have suddenly become mysterious and difficult to find, and he has not found Kong Fang at all.

  Just Kung Fang and Sun Hao joined the Mozu, but Qing Fan Zong Lao did not show up, and the more benefits that Qing Fan Zong Lao promised to join the Mozu were naturally unfulfilled.

  Of course, Kong Fang didn't care much about the benefits mentioned by Qing Fan's elder. After all, the soul-refining method that was most precious and difficult to obtain for others was not something Kong Fang lacked at the moment. Apart from the soul-refining method, other rewards were generally not very valuable, so Kong Fang wasn't particularly concerned either.

  However, Kong Fang sensed a hint of something not quite right from the sudden mysterious behavior of Qing Fan's elder, and had a feeling that something big was about to happen.

  Moreover, it's not just the whereabouts of Qingfan Elder that has become mysterious, but also the elders of other halls have appeared in similar situations. All this foretells that something big may happen, but except for a few people, the inner disciples and many entry-level disciples as well as miscellaneous servants are still practicing and living as usual, without any discovery of abnormalities.

  Kong Fang's discovery of the anomaly was also thanks to his encounter at Qianlong Lake. Someone had almost stolen a bloodline-reverting divine beast that had finally appeared in the Half-Blood Dragon Clan, which was a huge stimulus for the entire clan. Kong Fang understood this clearly in his heart. After the Dragon King personally came to the temple again, Kong Fang felt that things wouldn't be so simple.

  So now, suddenly all the elders' whereabouts have become mysterious, and Kong Fang's first thought was naturally the Qianlong Lake incident.

  But in this matter, Kong Fang, a small repairman in the realm of guiding souls, can't even get involved. Even if he wears black armor, Kong Fang doesn't have the qualifications to be cannon fodder. The three powerful forces are fighting against each other, and those who are dispatched are definitely existences that have reached the realm of Huā Líng or even stronger, let alone Xīng Líng realm cultivators who cannot participate in it, not to mention Kong Fang who is only in the realm of guiding souls.

  Kong Fang's only contribution was to mistakenly point out Jin Yangzong under the influence of yin and yang, adding fuel to the fire, allowing Qi Zong to make up his mind and join forces with Qian Longhu to eliminate Jin Yangzong.

  Although he couldn't get his hands on it, Kong Fang had a sense of urgency in his heart, so for this half month, Kong Fang was no longer as cautious as before. From time to time, Kong Fang would take out a batch of not too precious treasures, spiritual herbs and self-refined weapons and armor to exchange for contribution points at the Lingbao Hall.

  A month later, except for those absolute treasures that cannot be taken out, Kong Fang has already taken out more than 90% of the other treasures, which also changed his contribution points from the original 5,000 to 13,000.

  Kong Fang only needed 10,000 contribution points to exchange for the Five-element Divided Mirror, and the extra 3,000 Kong Fang didn't plan to keep for himself. He temporarily didn't lack contribution points, and even if he did, he could use other treasures to exchange for them. Therefore, Kong Fang decided to give these extra contribution points to Fang Tou, who had always been obedient and loyal to him, and let Fang Tou go exchange for the Three-star Soul Refining Method.

  Kong Fang's inner disciples were once again granted the Five-Star or even Six-Star Soul Refining Method due to the Qianlong Lake incident. Although the starlight imprints in Kong Fang's Purple Mansion were all destroyed by the endless stars, outsiders still believed that Kong Fang possessed the Eight-Star Soul Refining Method. Even if his divine soul grew rapidly and violently, it wouldn't scare others.

  Moreover, after joining the equipment demon, Kong Fang will also gain some benefits, and naturally, he won't have to waste contribution points exchanging for Soul Refining Techniques to conceal his rapid cultivation speed. After all, for Kong Fang, exchanging for Soul Refining Techniques is purely a waste, it's just making the endless starry sky rage again.

  Fang Tou, being just a follower and not having a soul symbol, had Kong Fang personally run to the Dao Zhen Hall, where he exchanged 3,000 contribution points for a jade symbol of the Three-Star Soul Refining Method. With this jade symbol, Fang Tou could find any elder to teach him the Three-Star Soul Refining Method.

  However, when Kong Fang later exchanged the Five Elements Splitting Mirror at the Lingbao Hall, the gaze of the miscellaneous servant behind the counter towards Kong Fang was extremely shocked and disbelieving. Although the Five Elements Splitting Mirror is an extremely precious and rare innate treasure, because its function is somewhat useless, no one has ever been willing to use enough contribution points to exchange for the Ten Star Soul Refining Method to exchange for the Five Elements Splitting Mirror.

  This has made the Five Elements Mirror placed in the Lingbao Hall for thousands of years, but no one has asked about it. That miscellaneous servant really couldn't understand why Kong Fang wouldn't use a million contributions to exchange for the precious Ten Star Soul Refining Method, but instead wanted to exchange for the useless Five Elements Mirror.

  Kong Fang didn't care what the other party thought, and as soon as he got the Five Elements Separation Mirror, he immediately rushed back to his own courtyard. Recently, the elders have been acting mysteriously, so Kong Fang first wants to study the Five Elements Separation Mirror, and then he will find an opportunity to cut out a clone. Having one more life for Kong Fang means having one more chance to return to Earth, as for whether this clone has any strength, Kong Fang can't care about that much anymore.

  Under the small courtyard's cool shed, Kong Fang and Fang Tou were both sitting on stone benches.

  Fang Tou looked at Kong Fang with a strange expression, unsure what his senior brother wanted him for while he was in the middle of cultivating.

  Fang Tou only had one star soul refining method, he was very clear in his mind that the soul refining method he got was the lowest level. Since he couldn't compare with others in terms of soul refining methods, he could only use hard work and sweat to compete with others. Therefore, Fang Tou devoted himself to cultivation almost to the point of exhaustion, day and night without rest.

  Although Fang Tou was eager to return and practice, he would not disobey Kong Fang's words, so he patiently waited for Kong Fang to speak.

  Kong Fang took out the jade symbol representing the Three Star Soul Refining Method from his storage ring and placed it on the stone table in front of him. "Younger brother, I'll give this jade symbol to you," Kong Fang said with a smile.

  "Senior brother, I don't lack anything now, you don't need to give me anything." Fang Tou's face turned somewhat awkward as he hastily shook his head in refusal. After becoming Kong Fang's follower, Fang Tou was actually unable to help Kong Fang much at all, but instead Kong Fang had always been taking care of him, which made Fang Tou feel guilty and ashamed, how could he possibly accept Kong Fang's things again? Moreover, this jade token looked somewhat extraordinary, it must be some kind of treasure, so Fang Tou was even more unwilling to accept it.

  "Really don't want to?" A hint of teasing flashed in Kong Fang's eyes.

  "We can't ask for Master's things anymore." Fang Tou shook his head firmly.

  "Alright then." Kong Fang picked up the jade symbol from the table, saying nonchalantly: "No one wants the Three Star Soul Refining Method, and I don't need it either. It seems like I can only throw it away." Kong Fang raised his hand to toss the jade symbol away.

  "What?" Fang Tou was taken aback for a moment.

  "Ah!" After reacting, Fang Tou suddenly let out a mournful cry. The stone stool under his buttocks instantly flew backwards, while he himself had already flown over the stone table and pounced forward. Fang Tou's eyes were fixed tightly on Kong Fang's hand that was holding the jade symbol, his face tense with anxiety.

  Kong Fang suddenly burst out laughing, and gently tossed the jade token upwards. Fang Tou's eyes widened in an instant, his feet stomped heavily on the stone table, and his body shot straight towards the jade token. Fang Tou was both tense and extremely careful as he grasped the jade token with both hands, not daring to use just one hand, fearing that he would accidentally crush it.

  He's being overly cautious, Yu Fu is not that fragile.

  Fang Tou gently fell to the ground, looked at the jade symbol in his palms, and then looked at Kong Fang. Fang Tou's face still had an unbelievable expression.

  "This is the jade token, the one that can find the elder to pass on the soul refining method, right? Fang Tou was so excited that he became incoherent. He had already been grateful and satisfied when Kong Fang brought him onto the path of cultivation. As for the higher-level soul refining method, Fang Tou had never dared to hope for it, but now he actually had a jade token in his hand that could get the three-star soul refining method."

  Kong Fang stood up with a smile, "Recently, the elder's whereabouts have been uncertain. Wait for some time and you can find Qing Fan Elder to teach you the Three Star Soul Refining Method."

  Kong Fang smiled and patted the shoulder of Fang Tou, then turned around and walked towards his own room. Kong Fang still had to study the Five Elements Separation Mirror, a congenital treasure.

  Watching Kong Fang's back, Fang Tou's eyes gradually became moist.
